Is there a new 2025 Ford Ranger coming?
Yes! Completely redesigned for the 2024 model year, the 2025 Ranger will return with all of the exciting updates it so recently introduced. That means you can order a brand new Ranger featuring one of the new turbocharged V6 engines or exclusive tech features, including the Pro Trailer Backup Assist system. In fact, the upcoming Ranger will once again return with a best-in-class tech lineup, with standard features that include the cutting-edge SYNC 4 infotainment system and a digital gauge cluster.
What’s the towing capacity for the 2025 Ford Ranger?
Just like previous model years, the recently redesigned Ranger can tow up to 7,500 pounds (when properly equipped). You can tow max loads with either the base EcoBoost engine or the peppier turbocharged 2.7-liter V6! With the Raptor’s exclusive 3.0-liter turbo V6, you can tow up to 5,510 pounds.
Depending on which trim model you select, the Ranger is available with three engine options. The XL, XLT, and Lariat come standard with the base 2.3-liter EcoBoost engine. But the XLT and Lariat are also available with more speed, compliments of the optional 2.7-liter turbo V6 engine. The Ranger Raptor is specially designed for high-speed off-roading, and it’s also the most powerful option, featuring an exclusive 405-horsepower V6 engine!
